  • I remember you changed the oil filter housing. What was the rough cost for the part plus time to swap?

      Has this level of care been applied to all of the cars that you have owned?

      I think the part was about £240 but no idea of the fitting cost as I had lots of other work done at the same time

      • Few more parts arrived today,

        LHD mirror gaskets, breather pipe and clips

        • After 5 years of having the ACS mirrors fitted I finally replaced the gaskets for LHD items, BMW wouldn't supply these unless they had a chassis number which was LHD.
